How to make your touch the alphabet flashcards:

Using scissors, cut each piece of cardstock into quarters. (see photos)

Using the black marker, write one letter of the alphabet on each piece of cardstock. Depending on your preference, you can write either capital letters or lower case letters. (see photos)

Using glue, trace the black “A” written on the cardstock. Cover the glue with Apple Jacks and set aside to dry. (see photos)

Repeat with each letter of the alphabet, covering the glue with the corresponding items listed above. Allow each letter to dry completely. (see photos)

Once all of the letters are dry, place them in the Ziploc bag for storage. (see photos)
